Ever been through a phase where you are stuck in the middle of a situation where you have to pick between two not-so-favorable options ? The consequences of actions taken are all a part and play of life lessons , one should also weigh out the results that would arise from decision makings . No one loves a bad story or a sad ending regardless of whether it is from them or not, I know it is a Christmas festive period and I should maybe be pouring out my season-greetings felt heart but I wasn't moved to write on it . I just got a nudge to emphasise in my little words and knowledge on Consequences lying around in the world waiting for one individual or so to become entangled in them when actions are taken without considerations . I , myself, am a victim of circumstances to taking rash decisions without even thinking it through.

Aftermath ?! Aftermath?!! Aftermath ?!!! What comes to our minds when such a word rings out ? Well, to my understanding, I say Aftermath is the devastating end results of an action that has been taken by someone. It might seem an archaic or antique word ,it can also be used interchangeably with "Consequences" . Are we all ready to face the results of actions taken ? No one wants a bad apple or a sour food ... many people nowadays live their lives nonchalantly and without care , they behave in manners that harm their close ones and the society at a large even causing harm and damages to themselves but that is a story they don't wanna open a chapter in it even though they are well aware of the dangers of lifestyles lived.

A typical example would be an addict smoker ; it may be the cigarette, hemp , cannabis and the likes. Anyone involved in such activities as an addict would not have to venture in such if they had thought of the Aftermath of such a reckless activity as it leads to serious negative health issues like damaging the kidney which peradventure leads to difficulty attached to breathing . A Pike and Shield effect is just a tell-tale in this direction also of a man who says great words of a Pike which is said to be able to pierce through anything and a Shield also which is said to be impenetrable, what happens when both the Pike and Shield are put to the test against each other ... that would be a kinda sticky situation ? Well , we can all see where this would play out to ... if the Pike stands it reputation, the Shield would be destroyed meaning its legend is false and if the Shield should stay true to its name also , the Pike would be defeated where in each case the man would be put to shame as he would be called a liar . Like I said , dire matters need critical decisions and whatever decision made must be with a back up plan cos nothing is ever guaranteed.

In all , no one is perfect and all knowing . Any decision that would be made should be carefully considered and weighted out to see the cost of risks and also see if it puts others at a disadvantage. We should take decisions with the minimal risk outcome and not just take actions blindly .

Thanks for reading and your time and Happy Christmas to you all ...
